Think about it, how many little kids do you know who can recite Jay-Z, 50 Cent, and Lil Kim's new songs verbatim but can't spell their name? When they grow up, they become Chopper and Babs.

I like Sara a lot too. I think that her humility has a lot to do with the fact that is older and much more mature than her bandmates. And, she also has more to worry about than they do. She has a husband and three babies that she has to look out for. She can't just be playing and having fun in NYC because bills have to be paid and people got to be fed back in Michigan.

Diddy is breaking these bandmates down the way they need to be. He is trying to give them a higher level of respect for Hip Hop and the struggles that many of the great artists have had to go through. I do, however, think that it is a little presumptive on his part to assume that none of them have had to struggle or pay dues in their pasts. Ness even admitted that he had been homeless before.
